Well I got new seats outta 99 civic, but there grey an my interior is black so I thought I would pick up some paint went looking for duplicolor's fabric paint but all I could find was "U FIX IT" paint for fabric...so I took out the passenger side seat preped it an everyting started spraying an it looks ok but not dark enough for me I guess. gone through 1 an a half cans of paint got to go out an put another coat on it in a min...I have been looking all day how to do it good...I am good with spray paint but first time doing Fabric if I had the money I would of just got new seat covers. but I don't so I thought I would try it this way..not turning out to bad but still look grey any Ideas..or just buy more paint? will have pics up after awhile

they eventually fade and you will get tired of them....they are rough sometimes against the skin and are a pain in the ass to repaint....i ended up buying itr replicas

depends I guess on how much paint you used.. ended up using 2 cans on one seat an yea it's rought well not alot or anything...haven't painted the drivers seat yet though..gonna try an not to use so much paint.. The lights I were using made it look so that it wasn't even turning black just a darker grey till I turned the lights out lol
the paint doesnt rubb offf but it does fade..especially the parts which are frequently touched.
